| I'm thinking of buying a 2001 Miata LS but I hate the appearance package. As far as I could tell from looking at it at the dealer, it looks like it just bolts on. Has anyone tried to remove the appearance package and if so is it pretty easy? | |

I just got a 2000 LS and tried removing the appearance package. DON'T DO IT, at least not until you've lined up a decent body shop to fill the three holes they drilled in the rocker panel below the doors (razzlefrackin%$#!J%). They are attached via bolts, trim anchors and supersticky doublesided tape (along with a rail piece held in place via trim screws in the three holes drilled through the rockers). The lines of the car are great without the tack on hoohahs, it's a shame the marketing folks thought they had to add value with the junk. |

Does anyone have any information on prices for th 2001 models? Will they be keeping the "standard" features they started in 3/00 ie:a/c, fog lights, mags, wind blocker? Thanks |

| about the 'appearance package'. it appears they really blew it with that tacked on ugliness...why oh why... | |

Do any of the veterans of the Miata forum know if Mazda people are monitoring this forum? The Lincoln LS forum is being monitored by a number of Ford people who are in a position to provide sound info., and help owners get problems corrected. Does anyone know how to get this message to Mazda? |

The blue soft top on my 1999 10AE has some tiny white specs on it. I can't tell if it's some kind of paint over spray or if the blue dye is spotting. Anyone else see this phenomenon? jpscatena |

Drove the Miata up to Lake Erie for the weekend. When I started it to go home, the airbag light started flashing, the pattern is 4 flashes in a row, then it pauses, does it again. Anyone have any idea what this means? I am assuming it is a self-diagnostic message, but cannot find anything on it. Thanks P.S. Waiting to order a 2001 Ford Crown Victoria (240 horsepower with the handling & Performance package), and I can put the Miata in the trunk if I have to take it in for service for this! |
